John Sleeper [3]b 1690 had three sons: Samuel, Jedediah, & John, Jr. by Ann Philbrick Sleeper. His second wife, Mary Towle, had Mary Sleeper (Jr.)
John Sleeper, Jr. [4] b 1716 d 1797, Kingstown NH, had two children. Susanna Sleeper Huntoon and Robert Sleeper, Sr. b 1761. Robert Sleeper, Sr. was b. Epping NH; in ca 1794 moved to Corinth VT and in 1816 - 1818 moved to Bradford County PA. He first came to PA in 1816 and then settled his family in 1818 on Sleeper Hill.
One married son, Benjamin Sleeper b 1789 stayed in Corinth, VT with his wife Sarah Sleeper, dau. Jacob Sleeper, Sr. Sarah's youngest sibling, a bro. Jacob Sleeper, Jr. is one of the founders of Boston University, Mass.
The descendants of this said Benjamin Sleeper get a little perplexed to find they cannot find Robert Sleeper in Vermont. They, instead on paper anyway, have to travel to PA and pick up their information on their line! This really surprised one of my Sleeper cousins!
So, for this line of: Thomas, Aaron, John, John you may read my book: "Robert Sleeper, Sr. [5] Family History; Epping, NH to Warren Center, PA. With Accounts of the Sleeper Family dating from Thomas Sleeper [1] of Hampton NH." Dates included are: 1616 to 1999. The Lane Memorial Library, Hampton has a copy as do NH Historical Society and VT Historical Society. One copy was sent to the library at Corinth VT.
I hope someone benefits from this information. I have very recently moved from Warren Center PA and now live in Oklahoma. My new e-mail is gsleepert@yahoo.com. My address is POB 32, Springer, OK.
